@Urban Hatemonger: Has anyone pointed out yet that it was their bass player, Adam Clayton, who was dating Naomi Campbell? There are many inaccuracies in some of your hatemongering so your opinion is uniformed at best. U2 is a band that promotes love and grace, harmony and brotherhood. That alone is very offensive to some people. Hence, the emphatic 'twat' comments and blind loathing of their frontman/lead songwriter.

so just agree to disagree and for f***s sake, take your meds you poor thing!

Regardless of what you think of them, U2 got to where they are (or was) by hard work and talent, not luck.

For me, Bono is an incredibly talented lyricist and was once one of the most enigmatic frontmen in rock. He's just let himself down with his offstage antics. He's not the first to do this and he certainly won't be the last.

it's a quote from Alan Partridge. It does not express my personal opinion on the theme and content of "Sunday Bloody Sunday"

Numb is a good one. The Edge's monotone vocals are pretty cool and work well with the song.
